[edit] Cleanup
There are multiple reasons for cleanup, so just a quick overview:
- A lot of the article appears to be copy-pasted from the RTV website timeline with some minor formatting changes.
- The part that was copy-pasted causes a mixed tense: parts are in past-tense, parts are in present-tense. Things that occurred in the past should be past-tense and not present-tense.
- The timeline, if it is to remain, needs to be cleaned up and placed into its own section.
- Other sections likely need to be added
I'm sure there's more, the article right now is just a giant block of text. — Xenoveritas 15:39, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] NPOV
This article seems to be very critical of the partisan affiliation of RTV. It repeatedly questions this issue, and does so with a strong opinion. It does not present a balanced view of this particular issue, and it is therefore not neutral. -PhattyFatt 18:05, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- Neutrality is not the same as balance. Neutrality is ascribing opinions to the people who espouse them, rather than presenting them as Wikipedia's own opinions. The requirement is that Wikipedia professes and endorses no opinion, not that "pro-" and "anti-" have equal coverage. The main problem with this article is that it employs weasel words and doesn't state exactly who has voiced the criticisms. Uncle G 16:06, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
RTV is not "non-partisan". Look at the books in their recommended reading list - they are all "progressive" titles.[1] Furthermore, look at their non-profit partners, again almost all progressive organizations.[2]--Davidwiz 16:05, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
